Happy weekend, friends!
When your kids ask for pancakes for breakfast you don’t deny them. You make them and then reward yourself with a couple, or five.
These Poppy Seed Pancakes with Lemon are to die for. Of course my kids did not eat these as they prefer their pancakes plain with syrup. So scratch the poppy seeds in this recipe for a batch of plain delicious pancakes.
I love anything with Poppy Seeds so much. My obsession started when I was growing up in Eastern Europe. It’s a very popular dessert filling especially around the holidays. So I found this Poppy Seed Pastry Filling at my local Kroger. It’s in the baking aisle next to the pie fillings. I love it. This is a 12oz can and you wont use it all for this recipe. Luckily, it keeps really well in the fridge in a air tight container.
Treat yourself or your brunch guests to these yummy little cakes.
As always, I welcome your feedback an thank you for reading. XO
